Excitement on TikTok: Mario Barth’s anti-gender message is blocked

Mario Barth (51) always causes a stir with his eye-catching and sometimes provocative T-shirt inscriptions. No matter whether “Men are pigs” or “Only the mother knows who the father is”, his sayings lead to one or two laughs from Mario’s fans. But with his last appearance, the comedian is now encountering harsh criticism: at the end of last year, Barth was seen on stage on the MDR show “Riverboat”. The Berliner accompanied his shirt with the statement “I don’t have a gender, I have a high school diploma” with the words: “In Berlin you are a man on Monday, a woman on Tuesday, and a street sign on Wednesday.”

Mario’s anti-gender message leads to violation on TikTok

Mario also hits a home run with his long-standing fans with this saying – his clothes with the anti-gender message are apparently almost sold out, according to Barth on his TikTok and Instagram profile. “The T-shirts are usually enough for six months. But if you keep it up, all the T-shirts will be sold out by the end of this week.” But the joy of his success is quickly put on hold by the guidelines of the TikTok platform: Mario’s video was blocked by the social network due to a violation! A measure that the comedian does not leave uncommented.

A short time later, the 51-year-old contacted his fans on Instagram, some of whom seemed just as surprised by the platform’s reaction as the comedian himself. “They immediately deleted a video of me on TikTok – because of a violation of the communication rules,” explains Barth, irritated . But the German presenter doesn’t let that get him down and immediately makes a joke about TikTok’s approach: “We screwed up. Or maybe I just said: ‘I don’t gender. I have a school diploma.’ Maybe the algorithm doesn’t want that.” One thing is clear: his joy over the successful sale of the T-shirt outweighs the fact that all of the copies have now been sold.

Mario Barth wants to convince people that “more than 80 percent don’t approve of gender.”

And that wasn’t all: the comedian still doesn’t want to keep his opinion secret. In a post, Mario Barth tells his Instagram followers that he would continue to defend his position on gender in the future. To support his statement, he also refers to a statistic: “According to the latest representative survey, more than 80 percent don’t like gender. The trend is increasing. Source: BR and WDR and and and.”

Fans agree with Barth: “I don’t see that I’m gendering either”

In contrast to the TikTok platform and its guidelines, most fans are enthusiastic about his saying: comments like “Mario, keep it up”, “Everything done right! I don’t see that I’m gendered either” and “Great, I’m standing “I’m totally behind you,” can be found under Barth’s contribution.

Many who also represent the anti-gender attitude are sad that the shirts are already sold out: “It’s a shame that you don’t have it made again, do it again” or “You have to have them reprinted. The shirts are the top hammer” is what his supporters want.

Few people criticize the posts or unfollow the comedian because of his attitude.
